These real, hickory-smoked bones are the ultimate treat. Some meat still attached, to keep your dog happy for hours. Flavor-rich bones are sterilized for safety. As with all natural bones, we recommend supervision during eating. Natural treats will vary in size.

Please click on "More Information" for Chewtime Recommendations.

We recommend supervising your dog while he's chewing. Take away smaller pieces he has chewed off, or broken, to minimize the extremely rare risks of choking or intestinal blockage.

We, as dog owners, love to give treats to our dogs as much as they love to get them. But when you treat your dog, it is important not to just hand them any treat and walk away. Know your dog's eating habits and choose treats appropriately.

Rated 5 out of 5 by jc19512 This product was everything I expected
I have a 6 yr old Standard Poodle and she really likes this bone. It is large enough for her to chew on for long periods of time. The delivery was very fast and I will be ordering more products in the coming months.

They are a "natural" product and are greasy when first given BUT after a day of chewing they are very clean. I toss them on the deck and let them get all the meaty bits chewed off then they bring the bones inside to continue chewing.

we have wood floors and usually keep it on her bedding she lays on in the family room so it does not slide around when she is trying to grip it to chew on it. It might discolor or stain carpet because of the smokeing method that leaves smoke on the bone and tissue on it.

Thank you for your question. These bones are hickory smoked with some meat still attached, so we'd recommend supervising snack time if you're concerned about the carpeting. Rewards this tasty and mouth-watering might get a little messy!

I gave a smoked beef knuckle to my dog and he loves it. I am not sure at what point the knuckle is "finished". He seems to be scraping away at the outer bone to get to the marrow. Is this ok, or is the bone done when the smoked layer is gone?

Our dogs eat almost the whole thing. When they get every thing they want off of them they just leave them alone and we pick up the pieces and toss that out. Be careful about leaving them where you may step on one though, they can bruise your foot.A side effect is white poop. This is caused by the calcium from the bones being digested is all.

It is the marrow that is good for the dog. I don't take the bone away until it gets small enough to swallow, but always keep an eye on the size and the dog. Also good for the teeth cleaning and exercising the jaw and mouth.

I usually take it away when they do not mess with it any longer. Usually this is about a 2 week period. I also trained our dog to never be protective of her bones or food with us or anyone else so when a delish bone is being worked over with ferver we can walk up and pet her or take it and she is submissive thus no bite.

Thank you for your question. Bones should be taken away if your pet is able to break them down and get small pieces off of the bone that may be a choking hazard. For dogs’ safety, all bones should always be given to pets with supervision.

The teeth might wear if you give these daily, but I have been using the pork ones (my dogs love the marrow, beef came empty) and they are 6 months apart and about 13 years old...with age my small terrier has lost a couple teeth, but since she is pretty old for a dog I can't see how it would be from bones, however with my small dogs, sometimes they need help from their gpa and his saw but out pit/border collie has no teeth trouble, no problem rafting the bones. I do recommend going with the other choices over the beef though. It is a good dental cleaning teeth treat in my experience.....

Any real bone has the potential to cause wear to a dog’s teeth. It is also possible that a dog could break a tooth on a bone or other hard chew toy. Dogs that already have worn or fractured teeth would be at higher risk of causing further trauma to their teeth. While these are not common occurrences, these things can happen. We would advise discussing with your veterinarian if your dog’s teeth would benefit and if it is appropriate for your dog to chew on bones. You or your veterinarian may prefer to give your dog other chew products, such as Dental Scrubbies or Greenies for plaque and tartar control. If you do give your dog bones, we recommend that dogs are supervised at all times and monitored for problems.

I don't leave the bones with the dogs. They are small--Shelties--I let them work on them for a while a couple of times a week. They last forever. Is there any harm in keeping the bones for a long time if they are not splintering?

Answer:

As long as they are not of a size to be swallowed or as you say splintering, should be fine. I have some that are several months old. Looks like a bone yard at times in his room :-) But, I do take some away and add new for variety.

I provide the bone in the evening as it relaxes my pup. When she goes to bed I remove the bone and give it to her the next day or evening. She does not have free access to the bone, and therefore enjoys other toys and chews in between. The bone can be used until your dog loses interest because there is nothing more to obtain from chomping on it. For my 6 month old, it lasts about 10 days.

Thank you for your question. Per the manufacturer the Hickory-Smoked Bones & Knuckles Dog Treats are heat sterilized for safety concerns. The bones will wear down rather than splinter so they will last a long time.
